Up until now, the focus has been on getting the most performance out of the boat — controlling it because we have to.
In this module, we shift mindset and skills towards controlling the boat because we want to.

This is the difference between simply sailing fast and truly mastering your boat in all situations.

What this module covers

In this classroom series you’ll learn how to:

Stop a catamaran cleanly and under control in different scenarios

Control the boat at slow speed and in tight or confined areas

Handle situations where precision matters more than speed

Carry out a realistic man overboard recovery on a catamaran

Recover efficiently from capsizes

Get back safely to your starting point or a safe beach when something goes wrong
